By GlobalDataNew World Oil and Gas CEO William Kelleher said the company combined P50 indicative volumetrics in the Danica Jutland project, while it has added 134 million barrels of oil equivalent and $1.22bn to New world.
"These numbers include only the three of ten identified prospects or leads that have been formally reported on," Kelleher added.
"As with our other Danish project, Danica Resources, there is considerable potential to significantly increase the combined volumetrics further.
"In Denmark as a whole, we have identified 39 prospects/ leads, a number of which have the potential to be company makers in their own right."
